Any spark of Christmas spirit was quickly snuffed today buy the tsunami of heavy flats which flooded our office from the mail centre. Very heavy day. :sad:

In at 5.55am, Out at 9.40am, finished 14.55pm
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

Wet, ridiculously wet and spent much of the day soaked to the skin. Poor sod tomorrow shall have a van with a wet sponge for a seat.
Got my first long weekend starting tomorrow so I'll have 5 days off with it being new year. Amazing!

Good day yesterday. Hardly anything on. Today was totally different. Catalogues coming through, heavy ones too. Weather hasn't been great the last few days.
